14 RIT Part-time Undergraduate Education Studies toll free Academic Policies and Procedures RIT s educational mission is to prepare students for living and working in a democratic and technological society by offering curricula that meet those needs, within an educational community that supports and encourages individual achievement in an atmosphere of pluralism and diversity. Moreover, it sets high standards that challenge students to develop values that will enhance their lives professionally and enable them to contribute constructively to society. Academic advising Academic advising is an integral part of a student s education at RIT. Advising is provided through the student s home department. Please consult the individual college sections of the Undergraduate Bulletin for more specific information Confidentiality of records RIT complies with the Family Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974, which governs access and release of information from student educational records. This statute, in part, permits students to inspect their educational records upon request; provides the opportunity to seek amendment to such records as inaccurate or misleading by writing to the official responsible for the record, identifying the part of the record they want changed, and specifying why it is inaccurate or misleading; and requires student consent prior to disclosure of non-directory information such as grades and class schedules to persons outside of the Institute without the student s written permission. All students, regardless of age, have a right under RIT policy D15 of access to and confidentiality of their educational records. The parents (or guardian) of a dependent student have the same rights of access to the records of the student, regardless of the student s age. The parents of a non-dependent student are not permitted access without the student s written consent. Except in unusual situations, RIT will not initiate the release of any information or records to parents and expects students to keep their parents informed to whatever degree the individual students and parents deem appropriate. Refer to the complete RIT Educational Records Policy D15 at: sectiond/d15.html. All parental rights to access education records, without consent, transfer to the student at age 18. Therefore, parents will only be given rights to access educational records if a) the student has given written consent, b) in compliance with a subpoena, c) by submission of evidence that the parents declare the student as a dependent (as defined by the Internal Revenue Service). Students may obtain the form FERPA Consent to Release Student Information at to allow parents the right to access educational records. Prior consent is not required for disclosure of educational records to officials of RIT who have been determined to have a legitimate educational interest and who need to review an educational record in order to fulfill their professional responsibility. A school official 12 is a person employed by RIT in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom RIT has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another University official in performing his or her tasks. Students have the right to file complaints with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures to comply with the Act. Such complaints should be sent to the address below: Family Policy Compliance Office U.S. Dept. of Education 600 Independence Ave., SW Washington, D.C Transcripts A student s official academic record is maintained by the RIT Office of the Registrar and is normally reflected through a transcript. All requests for transcripts must be in writing and should include the student s full name (or name used while at RIT), student identification number, dates of attendance and signature to assure proper identification of the record requested. Transcripts are usually prepared and available within one week after the request is received. Under no circumstances will a partial transcript be issued, nor will a transcript be issued to a student who is indebted to RIT. Transcripts issued directly to a student will be overstamped Transcript issued directly to student. Transcripts received from high schools and universities in support of admission applications/transfer credit evaluation will not be reissued by RIT. Grading system RIT uses a single-letter grading system. All grades are determined and issued by the faculty in accordance with the RIT Institute Policies and Procedures Manual and the particular standards of the attempted courses. Individual instructors have an obligation to carefully describe the standards and grading practices of each course. The accepted RIT letter grades are as follows: A Excellent R Registered B Good S Satisfactory C Satisfactory W Dropped with a W D Minimum Passing grade F Failure X Credit by Exam I Incomplete * AU Audit * I grades are considered temporary and will revert to a grade of F unless changed by the faculty within a prescribed period of time. R and S grades are restricted to specific types of courses. For more specific descriptions and procedures concerning the above, see Section D5.0, Institute Policies and Procedures Manual, available in the Office of Student Affairs or on reserve at Wallace Library, or at edu/~620www/manual/sectiond5.html.

19 Engineering and Technology continued Computer Engineering Technology Mike Eastman, Program Chair The computer engineering technology program is designed to meet the ever-increasing need for graduates with an in-depth knowledge of hardware and software design and development. The curriculum bridges the gap between the two by providing a solid foundation for each and integrating them with intensive classroom and laboratory experiences. From a software perspective, students are provided with a strong background in leading-edge development using programming languages that are fully entrenched in industry. Students learn industry-standard approaches to application software development, as well as state-of-the-art problem-solving techniques. They learn techniques for developing both applications code and firmware, and they understand and appreciate the difference. Embedded C and assembly language programming are performed in numerous courses. The hardware focus of the curriculum is on digital systems design and development. From low-level gate design to high-end microprocessors and current bus standards, students gain an architectural appreciation of computer systems. The curriculum includes in-depth design and analysis of combinational logic; sequential logic; and state machines, micro-controller systems, microprocessor systems, and state-of-the-art computer technology. Students perform schematic entry and programmable logic development in VHDL using industry-standard computer-aided engineering tools. This emphasis on software and hardware design, along with the program s solid foundation of math, science, and general education, enable RIT to produce graduates who are prepared to (1) pursue successful careers in their chosen professional field, (2) embark on careers of personal and professional growth and (3) pursue lifelong learning to enhance their undergraduate degree and advance their careers. Specific program outcomes are available on the department website at Electives Because of the need in the computer industry for graduates with diversified areas of expertise, the computer engineering technology program has a required three-course professional concentration sequence that can be taken in the areas of computer science, systems administration, IT wireless networks, telecommunications, or communications systems. The professional concentrationallows students to customize their education yet ensures depthof knowledge in a subject matter beyond the core curriculum. In addition to the professional concentration electives, the computer engineering technology curriculum has three free electives, which can be used to pursue minors, to provide additional technical expertise for greater career specialization, or simply to take courses for personal satisfaction and growth.
